Sustainability showcased at business support event in Pembrokeshire
A NEW initiative aimed at supporting sustainable business practices was launched at a public drop-in event in Pembroke Dock on Friday (May 30).
The Pembrokeshire Sustainable Enterprise Alliance (SEA) held its first public Sustainability Exchange at the Bridge Innovation Centre, attracting businesses and start-ups from across the county.
The alliance brings together key organisations including the Port of Milford Haven, Bluestone National Park Resort and Pembrokeshire County Council, with the shared goal of accelerating sustainable business development in the region—from decarbonising supply chains to embedding environmental responsibility in day-to-day operations.
The event offered attendees free advice and guidance on sustainable practices, alongside broader business support. Representatives from Pembrokeshire County Council, Business Wales, the Federation of Small Businesses, and Visit Pembrokeshire were on hand to offer one-to-one discussions.
SEA's mission is to foster a greener and more resilient local economy by promoting business models that benefit people, the planet and long-term prosperity.
Pembrokeshire County Council's Carbon Reduction Manager, Rhys Morgan, said: 'There are many businesses in this area already acting sustainably, and this event was about recognising and supporting that progress. Our regular Business Drop-In sessions are always popular, and it was fantastic to focus this month's event on sustainability and carbon reduction—giving local businesses a chance to connect, learn, and grow together.'
The event marked the start of a new chapter in collaborative sustainability efforts across Pembrokeshire.
